113: A new world

Xu Qi'an felt as if he had crossed endless void and worlds.

Only then did he land steadily on a circular platform.

He shook his head vigorously, trying to clear his mind.

"Phew!"

"This long-distance teleportation is really a bit dizzy!"

Xu Qi'an opened his eyes, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He had finally escaped from that killing battlefield.

"Although I don't know if that Ancient Demon is dead, or what the result of that group of Deity Transformation Cultivators was."

"But it doesn't matter anymore!"

Xu Qi'an then surveyed the surrounding environment.

Only then did he realize he was currently in a huge cave, and the spiritual energy around him was extremely thin.

As if the spiritualpulse of this place had shattered.

Xu Qi'an immediately communicated with the Immortal Palace Spirit in the crystal shard.

"Immortal Palace Spirit, do you know where this place we teleported to is?"

Immortal Palace Spirit could only reside in the crystal shard and could not come out, so he transmitted his voice.

"It should be one of the Xuan Ling Sect's strongholds back then, but I'm not sure exactly where."

Xu Qi'an nodded.

Since he had arrived at a new place, he would first investigate before making any plans.

Soon, Xu Qi'an walked out of the cave.

A dazzling ray of sunlight shone down from the sky.

There were no clouds for miles, and the sky was clear and bright.

It had been a long time since Xu Qi'an had felt such a real sensation.

Outside the cave was a ruined site similar to a Sect.

Everywhere were broken walls and ruins, in a state of disrepair.

"It seems this stronghold of the Xuan Ling Sect has been destroyed."

Xu Qi'an flew into the ruins.

He began to wander around.

Suddenly, he discovered a few Cultivators of the Qi Refining stage, fifth or sixth layer, scavenging in the ruins.

"Hmm?"

Xu Qi'an's arrival also attracted the attention of these Qi Refining stage Cultivators.

"Who are you!"

"Today is the day for our Qinghe Sect to scavenge. Our three Sects all have regulations that no one can come before the scavenging time!"

The leader was a dark-skinned, black-robed young man. As soon as he saw Xu Qi'an, he said with a solemn expression.

"Qinghe Sect?"

Xu Qi'an slightly raised his hand, and with spiritual power, pulled the young man into the air.

The other few slightly younger male and female Cultivators were immediately startled and cried out in fear.

"Foundation... Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator!"

"Senior... Spare us!"

Xu Qi'an shook his head, then spread his hand and directly began soul-searching.

This was one of the divine abilities of the Soul Character Incantation.

As long as the user's Divine Soul was higher than the target, they could easily obtain the target's memories.

After one breath, Xu Qi'an opened his eyes and murmured.

"So this is the Qinghe area of Qingshan Country, a Third-Grade Cultivation Country."

"However, the Cultivation Countries here are a bit strange. Third-Grade Cultivation Countries are not directly governed by Fourth-Grade Cultivation Countries."

"They are all small countries that are independent."

"In this big man's memory, he only knows that there are two other Third-Grade Cultivation Countries near Qingshan Country, and he knows nothing about any Fourth-Grade Cultivation Countries."

"It really is a remote little place."

Xu Qi'an pursed his lips, put the big man down, while the few Qi Refining stage Cultivators were still kowtowing on the ground and begging for forgiveness.

"These so-called three Sects don't even have a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator. What kind of Sects are they?"

Xu Qi'an shook his head.

Back in Yue Country, if every Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator was considered a facade, almost no Cultivators would choose to establish a Sect or school.

"However, the contact between Mortals and Cultivators here seems to be quite frequent. Mortals don't seem too afraid when they see Cultivators."

"And Cultivators don't feel they are above others just because of their Cultivator status."

"Of course, this is only limited to low-level Cultivators like those in the Qi Refining stage."

"Never mind, small places have their advantages. It's just right to open up a cave dwelling and Cultivate properly first!"

"I'll strive to break through to the Divine Transformation Stage this time before coming out!"

Xu Qi'an waved his sleeve, and the few Qi Refining stage Cultivators present fainted on the ground.

He then teleported away from this place.

After an unknown amount of time, those Qi Refining stage Cultivators woke up, but they remembered nothing.

And when the dark-skinned big man saw that there was a middle-grade Spirit Stone in front of him, he was both surprised and delighted.

He secretly sighed that he had been blessed by an Immortal today!

......

After teleporting a few times, Xu Qi'an reached a place several hundred miles away from the teleportation array.

This was a towering and majestic mountain range.

However, the spiritual energy around this mountain range was extremely thin, and there were no signs of human habitation for hundreds of miles around.

Xu Qi'an decided to open up a cave dwelling here and go into seclusion.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, a brand new cave dwelling was opened up halfway up the mountain.

Xu Qi'an set up dozens of Formations around it.

Formations for concealing aura, defense, and illusion accounted for the majority.

Many of these Formations were obtained from those Cultivators.

Now they were finally being put to good use.

As for the consumption of so many Formations, Xu Qi'an was not worried at all.

After all, he had plenty of ling stones.

Not to mention the top-grade spiritual food that Xu Qi'an had replicated with the gathering treasure basin.

Even the ling stones obtained from the Cultivators he had killed amounted to tens of millions.

Xu Qi'an sat cross-legged in the cave dwelling, then took out the crystal shard from his storage bag and entered it.

Upon entering the crystal shard, Xu Qi'an saw a white jade palace.

This palace was like a miniature version of the Xuanling Immortal Palace.

"This Immortal Palace Spirit, he was prepared all along!"

Xu Qi'an smiled and shook his head.

As soon as Immortal Palace Spirit saw Xu Qi'an enter the White Space, he came forward to greet him.

"Greetings, Master."

Xu Qi'an smiled and said, "What things did you bring out from the Immortal Palace?"

Immortal Palace Spirit chuckled, then led Xu Qi'an around the palace.

The first place they went was the Immortal Palace's scripture storage pavilion.

This place recorded all the Cultivation Techniques and divine abilities of the Xuanling Immortal Palace since its construction.

Among them were even Cultivation Techniques that could be cultivated up to the Mahayana stage!

The Cultivation Technique Xu Qi'an was currently practicing was still the High Grade technique Qingling Fenying Jue from the Floating Cloud Sect.

Other than cultivation, this technique was basically of no help to him in combat.

However, this technique could only be cultivated up to the Nascent Soul Stage at most.

Now, for Xu Qi'an, it was destined to be eliminated.

But what Xu Qi'an cared about most was whether there were any Cultivation Techniques or divine abilities recording golden seal script in the Immortal Palace!

He immediately asked, "Immortal Palace Spirit, are there any Cultivation Techniques or divine abilities recording golden seal script in the Immortal Palace?"

"golden seal script?" The white mass of Immortal Palace Spirit was slightly puzzled.

Then, as if he remembered something, he said, "There's no golden seal script, but there are books recording silver tadpole script. Would Master like to take a look?"

"Silver tadpole script?"

Xu Qi'an was slightly puzzled, and then under the guidance of Immortal Palace Spirit, he found that book.

This book was entirely silver, with four large characters written on it.

"Secrets of the Immortal Realm."

And when Xu Qi'an opened this technique, he suddenly found that everything recorded inside was in silver tadpole script.

Xu Qi'an couldn't understand it, but he was greatly shocked.

Meanwhile, Immortal Palace Spirit at the side began to explain, "Master, this book seems to record things related to golden seal script. I'll read it to you."
